Kris Bryant has a few hours remaining to make the All-Star team.
Fans can cast ballots for Final Vote until 3 p.m. Thursday on social media. Any tweet that includes a designated player hashtag — Bryant’s is #VoteKB — will be tabulated as part of the official vote total used to determine the winners. The winners will be announced at 5 p.m.
Bryant’s wife, Jessica, is making a strong social-media push for her husband. She has been tweeting out favorites (He likes Taco Bell), telling stories and answering questions Thursday about her childhood sweetheart, whom she married in January.
‘‘In 10th grade at his game he got walked,” Jessica Bryant tweeted. “Ball 4, slips on home plate and face plants it! Possibly the funniest thing I’ve ever seen!’’
